Hah, I almost put in that the female engineers you do see are all asian but I decided that I'd already spouted enough stereotypes for one post :P.

I hate to be the "well actually" nerd, but I don't think you can torture someone with a car battery unless you are hitting them over the head with it. Go grab the battery posts on your car. 12 volts isn't enough to even give you a perceivable shock.

It was interesting to hear McConaughey talking sincerely about God and religion in his acceptance speech after watching Rust's rants about how stupid religious people are.

I am 100% against gun control, but the argument that guns are not more effective at killing people than knives is just retarded. It's extremely obvious that they are.

Based on my experience with engineering, a black female engineer is like a unicorn. She's probably going to get hired for any job that she applies for just because both women and black people are severely underrepresented in the field. Secondly, very few of the female engineers I knew did much...

Seems like the teleprompter is going way too slow. It's making the presenters look like morons.

What's sad is that she won an oscar and she will probably never have another major role. They just don't make that many movies about 400 lb women.

Turned it on just in time to see Ellen taking pictures with that giant phone. This is retarded.

Yeah, DSL is pretty much dependant on how good your wires are and how far down the line you are. You pretty much get what you get.

Iridium is starting to launch a new 72-satellite array that would be capable of giving anyone on the planet 8 Mbit down no matter where they are. It's a replacement for their sat phone array that they already went broke on. I suspect it will be expensive since the satellites cost so much to...

However they chose to evaluate "brains" obviously didn't work out. IQ doesn't translate to being good at survivor at all. It's not really about book smarts, it's about social skills more than real book smarts. I wasn't really down on J'tia until she dumped the rice. That was some dumb ass...

Fuck Subway. I'd rather eat a day old sub from a gas station. Same quality and half the price.

Don't forget Mexicans and people carrying guns in public. Also a lot of Mormons.

I agree with this, but it's not always easy to know what you are passionate about. Even taking classes on the subject sadly won't tell you whether or not you will like the work. You really have no idea what it's like working in the field even after you graduate from college. I loved my...

Did you know that Tom Cruise used to race cars with Paul Newman, but he was too aggressive and everyone made him stop because he was going to kill himself and he was incapable of dialing it back? That's you and mountain bikes dude. Find a different thing.

Not all of them. If your'e in Modesto you can stay entertained by watching for people who want to shoot you or steal your car. Nothing boring about that!

Hah, I can remember the first TV I bought getting out of college. It was a 32" Tube TV and it cost like $450. I carried it up the stairs to my apartment by myself. I had to stop and rest at each step and was in constant fear of slipping and destroying the TV/killing myself. Now a 32" TV is...

Yeah, I think they usually budget enough OT for 3 or 4 good storms per winter and if you get 3 or 4 in December then it's going to be slim pickings for the rest of the year. Also there is a thing where the snow plow drivers are excited about making OT for the first few weeks but once there's...

Mexican food varies drastically from area to area. Phoenix is a lot different than Albuquerque, which is way different than California, which is much different than Texas. I'm told it's much the same in different areas of Mexico. When it comes down to it it's all just combinations of meat...

Shove the garlic up your ass, shove your thumb up behind it, and leave it there overnight.

Last season wasn't their best, but this season it feels like they just gave up. I am too lazy to look up the writers on IMDB but I can't believe it's the same people.

Just got around to watching this mailed-in piece of shit. I can't believe how far this show has fallen from last season.

You guys are just copy-pasting these theories and pictures from Reddit right? I would hate to think that I participate in a website where people go frame by frame through TV shows and take screenshots of people wearing yellow ties.

I think the whole trade thing was bullshit, but Cleveland does have 2 first round picks this year. I bet with a team as stacked as the 49ers and 3 first round draft picks you could probably attract a lot of coaches.

And that is 100% true. The voters decided that having a pro team was worth what it costs, so where's the scandal? San Francisco didn't want to pay for a stadium so the 49ers are in Santa Clara now. Not exactly the end of the world. NFL teams are not the police or schools. If you don't want...

Thanks, I hoped some of the people with Asus routers that posted earlier in the thread would weigh in. It looks like you can just look at wired vs. wireless and not individual IPs? What happens when you click the "real time" drop down at the top? I'm assuming it will give you some amount of...

I get sick of these "exposes". These stadiums are approved by taxpayers.

The only thing I miss about living in Phoenix, AZ is Filliberto's. This burrito weighs like 2 pounds and costs $5.

Cool. Thanks. This might work for what I'm looking to do. What is so cool about the Microtik ones? It was based on a true story.

DD-WRT is open source firmware right? The Asus I linked above runs AsusWRT, which I assumed was a proprietary fork of DD-WRT but maybe I'm wrong about that.

I made up that question because a lot of them are stupid, but every third question on there has someone answering "I don't know" on it.

On a side note. The question and answer section of Amazon is infuriating. Q: Is this router a good modem for netflix? A: I dont' know A: No idea I don't use netflix A: Couldn't tell you sorry A: What is Netflix? WHY WOULD YOU POST ON AMAZON TO SAY THAT YOU DON'T KNOW THE...

If this is true it's probably about Harbaugh wanting to be the GM as well as coach. I hope they don't go that way, Baalke has done a great job with the last few drafts. If it's about money then the 49ers need to just STFU and pay him because if they don't there are plenty of other teams that will.

I have read this thread and I have a basic question. As I have mentioned before, I have a very low data cap and every once in a while I get spikes in downloads that I can't explain and it fucks up my life royally. I have been told that some routers have firmware that can monitor your...

So people who come in and shake their ass for 8 games a year should be millionaires? No one is forcing them to be cheerleaders. If it took 40 hours a week 52 weeks a year to do the job then it makes sense that they would be full time employees but it doesn't sound like it's remotely close to...

It still comes down to "your content is slow until you start writing big assed checks to Comcast and if you can't afford it then sorry you lose". Net Neutrality at its finest.

LOL. Let's ban opinions and research that I don't agree with because that's justice!
